ArtPrize

ArtPrize is an awesome idea! It offers the largest art prize in the WORLD and is juried by the public. It's held in Grand Rapids, MI (home to Steelcase headquarters). Who knew GR was so happening? Above is a photo of 3rd prize winner, Eric Daigh. He creates large portraits out of pushpins. Check it out...

I'm in an Alex Prager kind of mood... Sorry had to use a Mad Men photo to entice you, but Alex Prager has that edgy, retro feel of a different era. Oh, and I know Eric doesn't follow this blog, but that Bud's for you (see if you can find it).
